There's some code that will DBF to XML and XML to DBF w/o CA or X2C in these messages:
Main program in message #1086916
Performance fix in message #1086938 (error handler call)
Performance fix in message #1087429 (speed)

I know there are CrLfs in XML FIles - but am not sure how they behave when embedded in XML strings. XML Vales or Node Text do not like "&" - IF they work - forget I mentioned it - if there are issues there may be some XML substitution for CrLf (like there is for ampersand).
Imagination is more important than knowledge
